Since I started to repackage it, I maybe found a possible solution to

Notice that if this is the problem, I could try to contact upstream, or
package an old GPLed version of the library (see [3]).


It seems to me that it is very close to a BSD license, which should be OK. My suggestion is that you forward your query to the debian-legal list and get some feedback.
